We are extremely excited to be sponsors for the fourth annual “Howl-O-Ween” pet costume contest and fundraising event being held at the beautiful Pinecrest Gardens on October 26, 2014, from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm! This fun event will raise money for Paws 4 You Rescue, one of Miami-Dade’s dedicated dog rescue organizations, as well as bring awareness to the public about the myriad homeless and needy dogs that go hungry on the streets of Miami-Dade, or who end up in Miami-Dade Animal Services.
This family-friendly event will offer seasonal activities, costume contests, arts and crafts, and more. Our team has gone the last two years and and we had a blast. We loved meeting our fellow animal lovers, talking about animal welfare, and especially enjoyed the cute dog costumes and raising money for non-profit dog rescues. This year’s outdoor event will be even better than the year before! When you and your dogs join us, you can:
- Take your dog to the Doggy Fun Zone ™, a lure-motivated obstacle course for dogs (no prior training necessary)
- Trick-or-Treat time at each vendor’s booth
- Let your kids’ creativity flow with arts and crafts
- Fun story telling
- Compete in costume contests for the dogs and the whole family, judged by local celebrities David Le Batard, Dan Le Batard, and their father Gonzalo Le Batard!
- Adopt a dogs from Paws 4 You Rescue
- Rent a canine companion for the day!
- Adults can have adult beverages at the beer and wine bar
- Commission a Howl-O-Ween portrait for yourself
- Collect an official Howl-O-Ween reusable shopping bag (while supplies last)
Please be sure to pass by our booth when you come! Proceeds benefit homeless pets!
